TEE fact that no steps were taken
in this city during the winter just
closed toward securing literary en-
tertainments, reflects in a manner to
arouse 3 sense of chagrin, and upon
reading of the rare literary and mu-
sical treats which other towns in
this section have enjoyed, great re-
greet is felt over our short-sighted-
ness. 1t is hoped that such evidence
of natural dullness will never crop
out again.

AT the common council meeting
Monday evening it was voted TO
settle with the bondsmen of Robert
Sharp at 80 cents on the dollar; and
further, to have the people vote on
the question, at the approaching
spring election, as to whether the
bondsmen pay the balance (25 per
cent? as per compromise first made.
Thus an issue has been raised to
make the contest ct the polls in
teresting.
THERE'S a grunt of dissatisfaction
heard on all sides because Of the
expenditure Of the city funds in
building what is termed a road, on
the west side of the railroad track
below the depot, Of ciuders aud
clinkers taken from the zinc works.
1t Is said to be constructed across
vacant lots and railroad property
and without proper authority by
the common council, and subject to
destruction at the will of the own
ers of said land. This is the work
of individual members Of the coun-
Gil, who have thus far succeeded in
getting bills allowed for the work
by the council. Such expenditures,
At the risk of the result being but
temporary, are surely injudicious.

THE great short horn cattle sale
by Ross & Sons, in this city yester-
day, was largely attended by the
representative farmers from all di-
rections. Buyers however, were
not numerous, that is such buyers as
are willing to pay somewhere near
what such fancy stock is worth.
The majority in attendance evident
ly being there for want OF some
thing else to which to devote their
time. Eleven young thoroughbred
bulls were sold averaging 5l0G,
which is regarded as far consider
ing the scarcity of money and feed;
but four grades was disposed of,
averaging S69.5U. No females were
sold, the bidding being 50 inactive
that Mr. Ross judiciously called
quits. Such opportunities to secure
good stock are scarce, and as the
auctioneer asserted those who want
ed to purchase aud did not, are lia-
bic to be oyertaken with the night
mare of regrets.
